"This flag means that…we will dispel the fog, and bring sunlight to this world once more."
"But it also has another meaning. Our kingdom will illuminate this world. And for that, I will need you, my mighty warriors."
"Are you ready to make the world tremble at your power?!"
"Yes!!!"
"Yes!!!"
"Yes!!!"
"Yes!!!"
Even though the Harpy group were all females, their chants resounded everywhere. Even the mist monsters that were more than 500 meters away could hear their chants clearly.
They looked towards the national flag, and they felt that they were shouldering a very important and glorious mission. This made them even more proud of what they were doing.
Hikaru nodded, he felt extremely satisfied. Showing the army that their task was not only difficult but also a glorious task, greatly contributed to the development of the kingdom.
This would make them feel even more responsible for themselves and the group, especially for the kingdom. And of course, what he aimed for was their loyalty to the kingdom.
In the future, the army would not only consist of this group of Harpies, or only people from the Race Gate but also many races, and many other people, even mixed people.
Therefore, loyalty and patriotism were things that needed to be propagated early.
It is these Harpies who will propagate these things. They will be like flames, constantly burning the dry grass.
That fire will never go out, as it will continuously spread. Even then, it would not only spread within the army, but also spread to the inhabitants of the kingdom.
Hikaru now felt as if he had achieved something, and he felt extremely proud.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom Tsuraguki saw this scene, and suddenly remembered the Blood Moon's glorious past. No, she didn't want to remember that place anymore, as she wanted to give all the glory she could to Hikaru.
Hikaru waved his hand, and the Harpy group immediately fell silent.
"I know you have many desires and wishes and that your lives don't revolve around the military barracks."
"That's why I will introduce a new regime for soldiers."
"First, it's [Glory] mode. You can exchange your merit for better items or equipment. Of course, you have to use them properly."
"Second, it's the [Welfare] regime for soldiers. Tsuraguki will make it available to you."
"You are not fighting machines, as you are my inhabitants."
"You have fought for this kingdom, and for that flag, that's why you deserve a good life."
"You can have a normal life, you can marry someone you like. In particular, you will receive a salary."
The Harpies felt great joy in their hearts, but they dared not shout because they knew it was time for discipline to triumph over mediocrity.
However, their hands were clenched so tightly that they turned white. It was not because they were angry but because they were happy, and they were refraining from showing off their indiscipline.
Even though they didn't expect Hikaru to give them any favors, they would still remain loyal, and serve him forever.
But when they heard Hikaru talk about the benefits for soldiers, they were so moved that tears came to their eyes. Previously they thought that they were just his slaves.
But right now, what Hikaru was doing was helping them have a normal life just like everyone else. It should be known that the benefits Hikaru was talking about were not inferior to that of the imperial army.
No, they felt that those benefits were more excellent than the royal army of any kingdom. More specifically, it is that they are evolved.
Now, the Tier of these Harpy were all SSR, and no longer SR. They now possessed bodies similar to those of ordinary people, which was more convenient for fighting or living than their previous appearance.
Hikaru in the eyes of these Harpies were no different from a god. Being able to evolve and change the fate of a race, it was an ability that only gods could have.
No, to them, Hikaru was even better than a God. Hikaru didn't know that right now, in the eyes of these Harpies, he had become an irreplaceable figure.
Just like Hikaru said, he didn't want to turn these Harpy into fighting machines.
They were just like any other inhabitants of his domain. Even though they certainly won't betray him, he didn't want them to spend their lives on the battlefield or in the army barracks.
Hikaru wanted to let them have a normal life just like the other residents.
Of course, he also had a purpose in doing so.
…
At the Saric Sanctuary, Seraphen, who was still wearing the disguise of a normal girl, went inside.
With Seraphen's ability, she could easily overcome the protection magic and the guardians.
Seraphen entered the main hall, to be more precise this was the prayer hall.
As always, when she returned from outside, she went to the prayer hall, and looked at the statue of the Pope in ancient times.
In the currently empty prayer hall, Seraphen went inside, went to the front of the prayer platform, and knelt down.
She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed with full respect for the statue in front of her.
"God… Pope… please show me the right path."
"I met him… an obnoxious man… but… he helped me overcome painful memories of the past."
"I… I don't know what to do. Is what we're doing right?"
"Who is that?!"
"AAAA!!" A voice suddenly sounded behind Seraphen, causing her to start screaming.
Seraphen quickly turned her head, and she saw a man who was about 40 years old, his face was extremely gentle and handsome. Maybe… When he was young, a lot of girls fell in love.
"Pope?!" Seraphen was startled when she realized that the person who was standing behind her was the Pope of the Saric Sanctuary - Satrito.
He wore a white robe, on his shoulder was a yellow cloth, on which there were countless magic characters that were emitting a beautiful aura.
However, Satrito's face carried an indescribable sadness.
Satrito nodded, he gave a gentle smile and said: "Hm… it seems our Holy Maiden has begun to notice another man. Who is that? Can you tell me?"
"This…" Seraphen stammered, finding it difficult to answer.
Satrito heard that sighed: "Haizzz, Seraphen, you don't have to hide it either. I know you don't like my son, nor do I force you to love him."
"We all have the right to choose, if you don't like him, you don't have to choose him. Whoever you like, I will support you."
"As for my son… I will explain to him, don't worry."
"So?! Can you tell me who that lucky guy is?"
Seraphen was a little embarrassed, she rubbed the hem of her shirt with her hands because she didn't know how to explain.
She may be a strong and cunning woman, but when Seraphen stood in front of Satrito, she felt like a child herself.
Satrito smiled and said, "Seraphen, I have raised you since you were a baby. So I understand your personality and thoughts."
"I know…it's personal and I don't want to get into your business."
"I brought Sarinba close to you to try to change your nature of liking girls, I didn't want to force you to marry him."
"Seraphen, you are like my daughter. I won't use my daughter as a commodity to trade for a little profit."
"When I hear you mention another man, I'm glad you've changed. You have begun to notice a man other than a woman."
"If you find it difficult to say, there is no need to say it, I respect your decision. If you need my help, I'm ready to help you."
Seraphen thought for a moment when she heard this, finally she sighed and said: "Haizzz, Pope, thank you. I know you care about me, but this is a little tricky. That's why… hm… I will deal with this with my own abilities."
Satrito nodded: "Um… try harder… hahaha…"
Seraphen's face turned a little red, and she turned to another topic: "Pope, would you like some cake?"
"Cake?" Satrito suddenly remembered the cake so much that it scared him, he immediately said: "Ah! Not long ago, Sarinba gave me a cake, you don't need to give it to me."
"Huh! His cake isn't as good as this one."
"Hm?!" Satrito frowned and said, "Is there a place in this world where cakes can be made?"
"Of course, we just don't know where."
Satrito heard this and felt extremely surprised, he said: "Information about the existence of food has disappeared 10,000 years ago. To be more precise, when the fog invaded this world, the concept of food as well as grain disappeared."
"Seraphen, do you know what the ingredients for making cakes are?"
Seraphen was puzzled, she asked: "What are they made of?"
Satrito's face began to become more serious: "From flour. But 10,000 years ago, flour could not be cultivated in this world."
"You must know that Sarinba made cakes thanks to the amount of grain he found in the ancient ruins."
"Now, there is another person who can make cakes, and there are two possibilities."
"First, that person may have found another ancient relic, in which there are also food resources, that are enough for him to create cakes."
"However, the ancient ruins must all be mined by Sanctuary, so that person is breaking the law."
"or the second possibility is that the person may have grown produce and made cakes from farm produce."
"If it is the first theory, then this is completely normal. But if that's the second hypothesis, then it has to do with the balance of power of the entire world."à
"Heh?! Is it that serious?" Seraphen also did not think that from just one cake, Satrito could deduce so many things.
Satrito shook his head and said: "Seraphen, you underestimate the importance of food."
